Little Door Festival
Series
Little Door Festival (LDF) is pleased to announce ‘Family Together’, the inaugural pilot of a festival that aims to help parents and children to connect, interact and understand one another. For the purpose of protecting participants and adhering to SOP guidelines, the Festival will be in a hybrid format, with selected activities happening online and in the Hin Bus Depot throughout the month of January. The main event of the Festival, will be set to happen on 15 & 16 January 2022.
Recognising that children’s opinions are often overlooked or dismissed by grown-ups, LDF is working to create spaces and activities where children are empowered to be themselves, where their aesthetics are appreciated, their opinions respected and their voices heard. With the goal of opening up little eyes to big worlds of wonder, the Festival offers a curated selection of activities designed to help family members better respect and understand one another, and to draw them closer together.
